Abstract
Eighty-six years of Pavlov's life and nearly 60 years of his physiological research were chronologically described with 70 items concerned, referring to 16 biographical materials published so far. His scientific investigations were divided into three different themes. The first was on the work of pancreatic and cardiac nerves (1873-1883); the second on the principal digestive glands with a stomach pouch (1886-1901), to which the 1904 Nobel prize in physiology and medicine was awarded; and the last on the activities of cerebral hemispheres using a conditioned reflex (1902-1935). Furthermore, 61 items of physiological and psychological studies and events in other countries, being related with Pavlov's work, were included in the record.
